Is Souping the New Juicing? Your 3-Day Soup Detox Meal Plan Print 10 LikeDislike By AshleyNickelsen If you’re a fan of juicing, you’ll definitely be on board with souping, the latest detox trend. Why drink cold juice in the winter? Go for warming soups this time of year! A soup-only cleanse offers a number of nutritional benefits while keeping you satisfied. Packed with vitamins, minerals and fiber, soups are filled with superfoods that can help you battle inflammation, cleanse your colon and reduce oxidative stress. Plus, most soup recipes are versatile, allowing you to swap in different ingredients and seasonings according to your taste. Ready to stir the pot? Here’s a 3-day detox meal plan by our Senior Editor Ashley Nickelsen:Day 1Breakfast: Energizing Green Bone Broth Start your day with a vitamin boost! This healthy blend of healthy greens and fresh herbs offers a powerful combo of nutrients like fiber, folate, potassium and more.

This simple recipe is full of flavor, and the vegetables offer up vitamins that other broths may not contain. Dinner: Tandoori Roasted Cauliflower Soup Just because you are souping, it doesn’t have to be boring…or flavorless. This filling soup provides lots of antioxidants and anti-inflammatory nutrients such as turmeric, cloves and ginger that will help to strengthen your immune system. The added collagen will help to keep you full longer, as well help you get smoother skin and stronger bones.Day 2Breakfast: Vegan Butternut Squash SoupLight yet satisfying, this butternut squash soup will help you start your day right.
